Ice Storm

We had an ice storm that knocked out the power on my road for three days. The house was SO cold, I had to find warm places to go. So I hopped in the car, turned on the heat, and started to run errands. But when I looked up into the mountains nearby, I saw this gorgeous sight of the ice glazed tree tops and rushed back home for my camera.

Pretty Buds

I could not resist the lovely pattern these buds made against the brick building behind it. This is the same tree whose yellow leaves are posted in my first entry.
